No. 18 Baylor women’s basketball’s trip to paradise took a sour turn Sunday afternoon as the Bears allowed a 17-point Indiana run in the first quarter that was too much to overcome, eventually falling to the Hoosiers, 73-65, in the Battle 4 Atlantis semifinal at Atlantis’ Imperial Arena in Paradise Island, Bahamas.

Baylor (4-2) had just three players in double figures and was led by senior guard Yaya Felder, who scored a Baylor career-high 20 points on 6-for-12 shooting and five made 3-pointers. Senior guard Jada Walker knocked down nine free throws and shot a mere 3-of-16, which was good for 15 points.
